Who this is for

Policyholders whose claims are stuck or rejected without fair reason.

Real life (simple)

  • Hospital treatment is done. Insurer keeps asking for “one more document” for months.
  • Real-life move: send a dated list of what you already submitted. Escalate to the insurer grievance officer, then IRDAI path in the guide.

What to do (step by step)

  1. Read the rejection letter carefully. Note policy number and claim number.
  2. Send a written grievance to the insurer with a deadline.
  3. Escalate on the IRDAI Bima Bharosa / IGMS channel if needed.
  4. For some cases, use the Insurance Ombudsman route.
  5. Keep all medical bills, FIR (for motor), and policy copies.
  6. Do not sign blank discharge forms.

Tips

  • Keep written proof.
  • Ask for acknowledgement numbers.
  • Escalate if there is silence.

Warnings

  • Do not use violence.
  • Do not send private files to Trishola. Stay on official portals.
